Featured Interview With Dwight David Croy

Tell us a little about yourself. Where were you raised? Where do you live now?
Raised in Portland Oregon and all over that state. Now residing in North Carolina due to 28 years of military service in the Army as a Chaplain and this is where the grandchildren are. One dog, Moosie. We are in the practice of adopting survivor dogs. We have had over 12-15 dogs over our 40-year marriage. Love to walk with my dog, read, read, read, and spend time with my grandchildren. Now writing in earnest and rewriting, at some point there will be an explosion of my work for better or worse. It is a process that makes me study my Bible more and is a prayerful replacing of the pride of man with godly thoughts.

At what age did you realize your fascination with books? When did you start writing?
Elementary school is when I disobeyed my mom and dad over and over again in reading after the lights went out for bedtime. I read in low light, with a flashlight, and moonlight. Thus, I read with glasses and have had glasses for most of my life since 5th grade. This would be God’s “come-up-in’s” for disobedience. College and my first pastorate is when I started to write. Was raised in the sixties when “creative” writing without the rules was the main way of learning to write.

Who are your favorite authors to read? What is your favorite genre to read. Who Inspires you in your writings?
Early on John Bunyan’s “Pilgrims Progress”; always the Bible; C.S. Lewis; Chesterton; and Dickens are among many favorite authors to read. Historical Fiction and non-fiction are my favorite genres to read. The reason I like the above writers is the fact these volumes are “others” centered. They write to change the world. Perhaps not with one volume, but by causing thinking to change with creative means. That is the way I would like to continue to write.

Tell us a little about your latest book?
My first book is about the disenfranchised which is very much a part of the heart of God. As a preachers kid growing up, I saw a lot of great ministry outreach and some not-so-great approaches to the population that is “fatherless.” A grid needs to be in place so that churches can evaluate themselves and their ministry to those people that God does not want us to forget. Not only churches need to evaluate, but also non-profits. I believe this book can help them from Scripture, and God’s thinking without the influence of any outside “cause.”
